This month will see the addition of a few new-old titles to the Nintendo Switch Online subscription service. Four classics are headed to NSO, all of them Sega Genesis games. You can relive retro experiences in Golden Axe 2, Columns, Alien Storm, and Virtua Fighter 2, or try them out for the first time, available now on the service.

Good thing there is retroarch

Oh look, more recycled games from their already existing genesis collection on switch.

Good thing there is hacked Wii U with Retroarch

I wonder how much Nintendo pays for these licenses - can't be a whole lot

I wonder if we will ever see the day they release an actual modern game subscription service

Remembering playing these games on original hardware, makes me feel ancient. Oh, well, back to XC3.

ZzzzzzzzZzzzz.. seriously, whoever cares about these games got to have an actual Genesis already (or something that can Gen games).. so no one's is anticipating these NSO retro releases, unless it's something from the N64 library, or something new like from the Nintendo handhelds or GC etc.

the genesis collection thats already on there is terribly emulated

good thing there is shield tv pro with Retroarch

Emulation already exists, so why bother paying for a subscription.

Even if that's true, I doubt people are rushing to this "better" emulator to play those four games, when there could have been something that hasn't been re-released yet. 2D virtual fighter instead of 3D virtual fighter?

Wow Xbox game pass LOOK OUT!

Alien Storm looks like fun. I don't like puzzle/fighting games. Never was a big Golden Axe fan.

 

[Prior22]

Has there ever been substantiated speciation of a Saturn subscription? Considering very few of those games have ever been ported I’m sure there would be a lot more interest.

 

[Bladexdsl]

Alien Storm looks like fun.

the arcade version is way better though

 

[Spider_Man]

And here nintendo are with more old shit we can play for free.

Who in the right mind will pay for this crap, its time people ditch nintendo, let the die off with their over priced old hardware to play shit we already have or could play if we wanted to for far less.

You have to be kidding right, the switch is litrally a port whore and they have the cheek to make you pay for new content in MK7 port, rather than make this content into the actual game.

Same again can be seen with Zelda, yup Zelda 2 is due to too many DLC ideas, well not hard considering the first had fuck all to it. But hey ho, #2.

Then pokemon followed, recycled Zelda, just throw pokemon into it, then comes 2 new titles shortly after with actual content.

Anyone see a pattern here, nintendo just try find ways to make as much money as they can by crapping out shit games and make you pay for it.
